Default BroadBand OT

At last the UK is getting into the 20th century. Still showing last
weeks news though.

Carphone Warehouse are due to announce on Tuesday that they are going
to be running a cheap broadband service.

I got a phone call from one of their salesmen last week as I used to be
with them until recently. Apparently they are linking with Pipex to
give a real bargain. But just what might constitute a bargain depends
on the clauses in the contract. Look out for them he

Carphone Warehouse is expected to unveil a new low-cost UK broadband
service tomorrow, offering existing customers of its Talk Talk
fixed-line service free high-speed internet access.

And the predicted move is expected to herald a large-scale price war
among broadband providers, with industry analysts predicting
subscription rates will fall sharply from their present level of
between £15-£20 a month as a result.

(Crap website BTW maybe IE based?)

Anyway, if you have the patience to deal with the BBC try this for more
details:

(Don't bother.)

Things to look for:

How much speed and for how long. Means: What do you want it for?
Positive service. Do you know how to handle problems without too much
help?
Telephone numbers. Can you take that and the e-mail address with you?
Contract. Will you be tied in? Will they charge you to leave?
